We met in high school and you became a great friend to me. You made a tremendous impact on my life. I am glad that after all the years without contact, we did have a brief conversation about a year ago. Thank-You for the laughs, the concern and compassion you gave even as a teenager.

Q: What will you miss most about John?
A: His uncanny ability to laugh at me whenever I had a stupid idea. The man was brutally honest and I’m grateful to have known him. He had a huge laugh

John Sharkey..I first met you 12 years ago doing collections, you left and came back. Working with you was a blast! There was never a dull moment at the office when you were there. Between our Canada vs USA hockey talks, going to Artpark to see a cheesy 80s band, and to you helping a friend of mine, you were a great guy. You will be missed by everyone. May you now rest in peace.

May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face. May the rains fall upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
RIP John Sharkey, Collections stories for days! You will be missed by many. My deepest condolences go out to your family.
Rest Easy Sir,
Amy Zawadzki

John was the first person I walked up to at our union hall when I joined Local 3. When I was looking for guidance and someone to ease my nervousness in starting over in life, John was there with a smile and a joke. We talked about how he also was over 40, and up for the challenge in starting a new career in the masonry field. He coached me through some difficult times over the last year and made me feel that I was doing the right thing. I didn't know him for long but I plan to pass on his kindness to future apprentices and I am forever grateful for my time with him. Thank you John
